I read about this abandoned Brunei hostel in an issue of Timeout, noted it down in my moleskine complete with an inaccurate hand-drawn map. I brought two cameras, made sure it was still bright out – for photo taking and for the spookies. We snapped from outside the compound, snapped from the left and then from the right. I had intentions of going inside but gahhh, I’m so lousy, I chickened out! There was even a clear opening to literally walk right in…
Well, if it’s your thing, here are some directions – along Tanglin Road, turn left into Tanglin Hill Road and go right to the end. You’ll see it on the right before a dead-end. If you do go there, I’d love to hear or see pictures!

Every few months, my Vespa (not pictured) gets to hang out with friends at this fifth storey carpark/playground.
Am heading out of the country for a zippy getaway tomorrow! I aim to be instagramming whenever I get internet so follow me there, my username is greenlaundry.

Isn’t this pretty neat? If anyone remembers my endeavour to learn to skate last year… well, I’m reporting back to say I sucked, royally sucked. I couldn’t get past learning to ollie which is skateboarding 101. This will be one of those things I stand from afar and admire others who can and do, along with people who play the guitar, people who are in a band and mm, ballerinas and gymnasts.

No words, just pictures this time. My head is swirly from swimmy thoughts.

Accidental double exposure on the first photo there. I took these photos around Tiong Bahru and if you’ve been to Tiong Bahru bakery, you will recognize it in the last two photos. Been cafe hopping a bit the past week and a real standout was Henry Congressional (thank you Rachel!). I’ve also been hanging out at my mom’s house (housesitting) and got to cook a bit. I got to try some recipes I’ve bookmarked since forever, yay! Mmm, I made chicken cutlets, grilled cheese sandwich and avocado egg salad.
Apart from this, all my waking hours are spent either working or watching the Olympics or experimenting on new stuff for etsy, hopefully soon! And I took time out from all this to meet Jackie last week, I took some photos and I can’t wait to finish the roll and get it developed.
